that really he conceived some further explanation was neces sary. Mr. lIERRIES referred to the previous votes of the House, in order to justify the present grant. The vote was carried. The sum of 3-1 0001. was then voted to defray the extraor dinary expences of the Mint in the gold coinage of the year 1826. And also the sum of 23,000/. to make good the loss upon the Irish silver tokens already recoined, and to be recoined within the year 11126. The sum of 5,0001. was next voted to defray the extraordi .stary expences for prosecutions relating to the coin of the coun try; as was also the sum of 8,7001. to defray the extraordinary expences in the department of the Lord Chamberlain, and for fittings and furniture to the two houses of Parliament. The sum of 12,0001.-was voted to defray the expences of law charges for the Current year ; and also the sum of 92,100/. for defraying the expence of confining, maintaining, and employing convicts at home and at Bermuda. The remaining items having been agreed to, the House re sumed, and the Report was ordered to be brought up to-mor row (this day.) Mr. ESTCOURT gave notice that he should on Friday nett move for leave to bring in a Bill to regulate the mode of Licensing Ale-houses. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House Adjourned at HALF-PAST TWELVE O'CLOCK. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Etoile, dated March 12.)

The Captain Pacha owed the preservation of his life, in the last action, to his steam-host, to which he retreated when his frigate was in, flames. It is affirmed that Tripolizza has really been retaken by Colocotroni, and the Egyptian garrison massacred. it was said at Corfu, that, after three reverses, Ibraham Pacha bad returned to Navarin.

The tide of light points 'out all its dangers and all its consequences. But immoveable, amid the terror of families and the stupor of France, the Administration pursues its retro grade course, and makes its hireling writers pour torrents of insults on the wise enemies who vainly endeavour to enlighten it. It knows that the whole country rejects the project; but the country, according M. de Peyronnet, is anti-monarchical. This answers every thing. Must we not, besides, have younger brothers and sisters to populate the convents which are building in every direction ?

The procession consisted pf eight mourning coaches, followed by 15 private carriages, and the mournful ceremony was attended by the Chair. man . and Deputy Chairman of the East India Company, the Master and Wardens of the Drapers' Company, and # large as, semblage of private friends. Mr. Smith is much regretted by a wide private circle, beside those to whom he was professionally and officially ,known. His friends found in him undeviat ing worth, mild cheerfulness of character, and an informe r tion extensive, varied, and ainnsing. His liberal hospitali ties Were often experienced at his country residences, and More especially a Draper's Hall, where, and at the India Ilouse, lie long . held responsible situations with a degree or zeal, integrity, and 'shinty, which obtained for him several flat tering piddle tokens of respect. Mr. Smith some year! AK.° represented 0, ...e Borough of Caine in Parliament. . , The body of Lord DowNEs, late Chief Justice of Ireland, was on Thursday deposited in the family fault at St. Anne's Church. All business was suspended in the Courts, in order to permit the members of the Bar to show the last tri. bite of respect to his remains ; his funeral was attended by the Lord Chancellor and other distinguished characters, anti almost all the Barristers now in Dublin. —Us , ' rceman' Journal,) The long-expected statement of the CHAN.- (=Loa of the EXCHEQUER, has at .ast cooPrined the expectation of a Loatt—by wkich expe dient only, the financial embarrassment of the country can be met. No sooner was this fact ascer tained --and with the important d I; a...c..t.0n of nn avowed attack upon the Sinking Fund—thou the Members of the Stock Exchange who crowded the lobby of the House of Commons, began to operate, and Consols were done on the spot, at a decline from the closing price, of 1 per cent. A Loan of IS millions had been generally an. ticipated ; but although it was admitted by Mr. RoniNsoN that it might be desirable to reduce the Unfunded Debt, by nearly that amount—it k not intended, in the present Session, to fund more than eights or nine millions, of Exche quer Bills. 'l'ho Bank of England, by, advances to Government, and by purchase, are understood to hold about 11 millions of these Se curitios''..six millions of which are to be paid off by Government, This will leave three millions of the Loan, for the withdrawing an equal amount from the hands of the Public. In noticing the future applipation of the Sinking Fund to the reduction of the Unfunded, as well as the F unded Debt, Mr. R o u tt itor; ob served, that it would have the effect of lessening the daily purchases of Stock by th e C omm i ss i oners , which would $ 6 not be attended by any inconve " nience." But although the discontinuance of these purchases may sot be attended with official inconvenience—it will infallibly produce an portant effect on the market, which at present, is supported by the constant application of the large sums which take off money stock, that other. wise would often press heavily on the Market. However satisfactory and acceptable, to the House may have been the speech of Mr.Routtoort, the Money Mark e t has manifestly felt an opposite impression. The details of the statement, were in troduced, and sustained, with great address; but when stripped of the adventitious items which have so. seasonably been brought in aid of the di minished resources fee the year, it is impossible not to see through the transparent varnish with which the general result is glossed. In reviewing the state of the Public Debt, it was asserted to have been reduced, between 18 and 19 mile lions durini the last three years, While in ten years, taxes had been reduced to an amount ex ceeding millions. By a printed Return to the House of Commons very recently delivered to the Public, we have the following official statement of the the total Unredeemed Debt, and annual charge on the sth day of January, 1810, and, on the sth day of January, 1826 : Debt. Charge. 1826 - 03,783,282 . 29,176,157 1819 . . 832,136,445 . 29,144,761 61,646,037 31,396 Thus, instead of reduction, our Debt has been increased in 7 years, by more than 60 millions sterling ! Really, this is a species of reduction which might justify the trite remark, that the operation of the Sinking Fund was like a man with a wooden leg attempting to run down a hare—at every fresh start, she must distance her pursuer. We give the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER full credit for having made — as good a statement, as a case so adverse would admit. It was remarked by Mr. Ilusittssom to be a common observation, that 66 by means of " figures, any result could be obtained"—and by the use of such means, the CHANCELLOR of the ExcnEovEn has come to the result of estimating a probable surplus in the pre sent year of 714,5791.! In coming to such result he has naturally resorted to, assumptions— he assumes, exemptions from deductions, which may compensate for the admitted diminution of re venue in Customs and Excise, and, that as the fury of the storm has now passed over, he may rea sonably look for a return of that prosperity—the permanent continuance of which has been so un expectedly interrupted. The accidental cessa tion last year of Is. per lb. on Tobacco, has been fowl(' to have been so slightly injurious to the produce of that branch of Revenue, that Mr. Romp/sort has adroitly taken credit to himself, for permanently remitting that portion of the tax. Ilis remarks on the fulminations from the modern Athens against extinguishing the rag system of the Scotch Banks, were in the happiest strain of irony. They were received with complacency by all but Sir CHARLES FORBES, who could not restrain a denunciation of the attempt to interfere with the Scotch system of banking, and called upon his representative brethren to " stick together" in opposing the project. When was it that they did not stick together ? The Allgcmeirse Zeitung to the 7th of March, received this day, contains a letter from Frank» fort, which gives a more cheering account of the aspect of commercial affairs than there had been reason to expect. These Papers are in other respects quite barren of intelligence. The Nuremburg Correspondent was also re. ceived this day, but has nothing of any particular interest.—The following nre extracts : FRANXFORT, MARCH 3. The settlement for the end of February has passed over as well as could be expected under present circumstances. Only some inconsiderable speculators in the funds, who had gone too far, and were already tottering, fell on the decisive day; but, ;titer as all transactions an a great scale are concerned, all the engagements made for this day were fulfilled, and the crisis Which threatened us may the more justly be considered as hay. log happily passed over, as the experience we have had will not be thrown away. This fortunate result is chiefly to be ascribed to the measures adopted by the Government, and to the readi. .ness with which our merchants exerted themselves to assist, as far as they were able, those holders of paper who might other. wise have been embarrassed in the general distress, because they could not realize the securities which they hold. As was con jectured at the beginning, the sum of a million and a half was not required, and it is said that a third part has not yet been called for. We even hear that part of the new Issue of paper has been returned to the Chamber of Accounts by persons who, froM precaution, had taken .;tore than they in fact wanted,-,.

Successive operations, by a Broker acting for the great negociant, and by a Gentleman usually em ployed on account of the Great House, advanced the price to 77*—but a Money Sale for 120,0001. paralyzed the market, which gradually declined to 77-11, the last price at which Consols were quoted before 1 o'clock.
